Daiyu's wife in the Red Chamber

The concierge was in a hurry, obeying orders one after another, closing the door and bolting it.

Previously it was Baoyu who thought Wei Ruolan and Daiyu were a natural couple, but now Wei Ruolan is the most difficult, and it is still Baoyu who refuses to ask someone to open the door for them.

Wei Ruolan has already led the welcoming team to the door, and seeing that the main door is closed, knowing the custom, she didn't think it was surprising, instead, she ordered people to play music, and at the same time ordered people to stuff the red seal that opened the door into the gap, it was made of extremely thin Jin Yezi saw that there was no movement inside and no one was talking, she was slightly startled, listened carefully, heard Baoyu's breathing, and said with a smile: "Brother Bao, let's have a game together, you eat my wine, hurry up Open the door for me quickly, don't miss the auspicious time."

Baoyu shook her head and said, "Is it okay for me to open the door for you just for a few drinks? There is no such thing as such a good thing. I don't want my sister to go out, and I don't want my sister to live in our house from now on. Go to your own house."

Everyone inside and outside laughed when they heard it, and said, "It's childish after all."

Wei Ruolan stepped forward, pushed the door lightly, she did not move at all, and said with a smile: "Brother Bao, I never thought of going home alone when I came to welcome my relatives, you said you opened the door for me, or I knocked on the door myself? "

Baoyu snorted, and wanted to shake her head like before, but thought that Wei Ruolan couldn't see outside the door even if she shook her head, so she didn't continue to move, but replied loudly: "Who is there to greet the relatives and hit the door? You are so impolite. Besides, you are only allowed to welcome your relatives, and I am not allowed to close the door? Just wait, I will not open the door anyway."

The concierge listened beside him, sweating with anxiety, and dared not refute Baoyu, so he had to wink and go to Jia Lian.

When Jia Lian came over, he saw Baoyu and Wei Ruolan arguing against the door and refusing to let go. Because it was still early, Jia Lian was not in a hurry, smiled and said loudly: "The red seal is not enough, bring some more! "

Hearing his voice, Wei Ruolan hurriedly stuffed a few gold leaves in with her own hands.

Jia Lian held it in his hand as lightly as if there was nothing there. It wasn't because there were gold and silver lockets in his purse, so he knew that Wei Ruolan had already prepared to stuff it under the door.He didn't even look at how many gold leaves he got in his hand, and said with a smile: "Not enough, not enough, married to our family's daughter, how can a few leaves be enough? If not enough, I won't open the door."

Wei Ruolan stuffed a few more pieces in, and said with a smile, "Second brother Lian, don't embarrass us like Baoyu, it's better to open the door quickly, and it won't be good if I do something wrong when I'm in a hurry."

Jia Lian threw the gold leaves to the porter to drink, waved his hand, and said, "Open the door!"

Baoyu opened his hands and hurriedly stopped him. Unexpectedly, Jia Lian saw Baoyu's reluctance to part with Daiyu, and was afraid of delaying the auspicious time. He lifted Baoyu to the side, and the front door was wide open, so that Baoyu stomped his feet and struggled vigorously: "Second elder brother, you can't open the door. If you open the door, they will take sister Lin away! You little brat, Let me down quickly, don't tell me to turn around and smash your flesh!"

As soon as the door opened, Wei Ruolan and others rushed in. Seeing Baoyu's distressed appearance, everyone burst into laughter, especially Feng Ziying, who pointed at Baoyu and bent down laughingly, almost speechless.

Baoyu finally shook off the young man and stood firm. He said angrily, "Second Brother Lian, how could you open the door for him so easily?"

Jia Lian ignored him, and invited Wei Ruolan and others to enter the gate of the ceremony, and explained with a smile: "Sister Lin grew up in our family as a child, and the sisters love each other very much. Baoyu is very reluctant. She cried all night yesterday, even worse than the old lady. No amount of persuasion will work, let alone today, please don’t take it to heart.” She was in the same mind as Madam Jia Shexing, even though she was at odds with the second room and secretly hated Mother Jia’s favoritism, but cared for Mother Jia like a jewel like a treasure. Jia Lian didn't have the slightest resentment about Baoyu, so he said this.

Wei Ruolan knew it, and said with a smile: "Brothers and sisters are deeply in love, and there is only admiration and envy. How can there be a joke? Thank you, second brother, for your righteousness. Please lead the way, we should get Feng Guanxia's hairpin, hairpin, etc. Give it to the girl."

Jia Lian hurriedly invited in, entered Yimen, and turned to Jiamu's main courtyard, probably because Daiyu's boudoir was here, not Rongxi Hall.

Chai Tan and a group of people were chatting and joking with Daiyu, when they heard that Mrs. Quanfu had brought Fengguanxiapei in, they hurriedly got up and moved away. When the makeup reminder sounded, Mrs. Quanfu opened her face to make up for Daiyu, but she was not in a hurry to change her clothes.

Daiyu is the head of the county conferred by the imperial court, she has her own gown for her wedding, and she should be dressed up according to her rank, just like Wei Ruolan is also wearing a second-rank dress today, which is different from the previous fourth-rank crown dress.When sending the dowry yesterday, Feng Guanxia sent it together, and it was sent by Wei Ruolan this morning, so it was considered a full gift.

About to finish dressing, with the sound of firecrackers, the reminder song sounded outside again, Mrs. Quan Fu smiled and said: "Please change the clothes, the county magistrate."

Sister Feng pressed Daiyu not to tell her to move, and said with a smile: "How can there be any reason to change clothes so quickly? What about the make-up ceremony? What about the make-up poems? None of them have been sent, so who should change clothes!"

A Mrs. Quan Fu went out, and soon came over with a make-up gift and a make-up poem.

Sister Feng looked at it twice, and even though she was very satisfied in her heart, she still said: "Sister Lin, come up with some tricky questions and ask them to recite poems and compose poems. If they are not satisfied with what they have done, we will not change our clothes and tell them to write poems." Wait!"

Immediately, two mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law of You family and Xu family came up with pens and ink, asking Daiyu to write a question.

Daiyu thought for a while and came up with two questions.

Wei Ruolan had already thought about how to deal with all kinds of difficult things. After getting the problem, she saw that although she couldn't do it, she had already asked someone to remember it in her heart, and she guessed the problem. He wrote a poem and a fu with a brush, and asked Mrs. Quan Fu to send it in for Daiyu to read with a smile.

After doing this three or four times, Sister Feng stepped aside and asked Mrs. Quanfu to change Daiyu into a phoenix coronet and a red hijab.

Farewell to Jiamu, Daiyu couldn't help shedding tears. Jiamu remembered the scene of sending her daughter to marry more than [-] years ago, her face was full of tears, and she was very sad. Baoyu next to her had already cried into tears, and everyone persuaded her I can't help but see that Jia Lian has already gone out to get on the sedan chair with Daiyu on his back, but she follows her, leaning on the threshold and crying, "Sister, don't go!"

Daiyu had already sat in the sedan chair and put down the embroidered curtain. She could hear Baoyu weeping bitterly, which echoed the sound of laughter around her.

Wei Ruolan smiled and said: "Brother Bao, don't worry, I will not let the girl be wronged."

Say goodbye to Jia Lian and others, get on the horse, and go home without turning back.

Baoyu cried even harder. After chasing him for a few steps, he was grabbed by a young servant. He was so angry that he stretched out his foot and wanted to kick him. Then he thought of Daiyu's usual words, saying that he shouldn't take down people casually when things don't go his way. , involuntarily took it back, paused, and said: "Stinky boy, what are you stopping me for? Sister Lin left and will never come back, and no one will listen to me complaining about various unsatisfactory things in the future."

Jia Lian lit incense and came back on the way to send the sedan chair. Hearing the sound, he pulled him to the door and said, "Why are you crying? Today is sister Lin's happy day. Look, who is crying like you? It's both angry and funny."

When carrying Daiyu to go out, he found that the more Baoyu cried, the worse Mrs. Wang looked.

Baoyu was crying so hard that he hiccupped and choked and said, "Second Brother, what do you know? You people don't understand the benefits of Sister Lin. Although there are many sisters, only Sister Lin knows what I think. It's not like others, who are always persuading me to do things I don't like. If I don't do it, it will be a crime."

Jia Lian smiled and sent him to Jia's mother's room. When they saw Baoyu, everyone called to him like a phoenix and asked him a long sentence, for fear that he would be wronged.

Baoyu was afraid that Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang would be worried, so he hurriedly said that everything was fine, wiped away his tears, and finally stopped crying. Seeing Tanchun's worried face, he suddenly remembered the recent events, he was busy with Daiyu's affairs, So I forgot about Tanchun, and now I feel better when I think about it, and I said to Mrs. Wang: "I sent sister Lin out today. I feel like my heart has been cut by a knife. I am very reluctant. What should third sister do when she goes out in the future?" What should I do? I just don’t know when the third sister will have good news.”

Tanchun blushed, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to tug on Baochai's sleeve. The two sisters quietly walked out of the upper room, and stood on the porch to listen carefully to the sound of drum music that gradually faded away and was almost inaudible.

But Mrs. Wang said after hearing Baoyu's words, "Your child's family, what are you doing asking about these?"

Baoyu said dissatisfiedly: "I'm not young anymore, where is the child's home? Sister Qiao and Brother Xuan are the children's home. The second brother Lian went out with sister Lin on his back, and I want to go out with my sister on my back. The third sister It's not too young, sister Lin has a family, I'm afraid that the fourth sister will talk about her husband's family even if she gets rid of her clothes, how long can the third sister delay? The wife actually put in more thought and let the third sister make the decision. That year, sister Feng said The fourth young master of Mr. Yang's family is very good, and I personally think that he is a good match."

When Tanchun heard it in the corridor, his heart was sour, tears came into his eyes, and he was afraid that others would find out that his attitude would make Mrs. Wang know, so he hurriedly looked up at the thrush in the cage, clasped the cage with his hands, and muttered: "Damn bird, it blew dust all over my head and face, and blinded my eyes." He said, rubbing his eyes with a handkerchief.

But Baochai smiled and remained silent.

While listening carefully, Tanchun heard Mrs. Wang laughing at Baoyu and said: "It's a child after all. At one moment, I was sad when my sister came out of the court, and at the other moment, I shouted to my sister about him. Are you willing? Or are you not willing?"

Baoyu said: "When you should give up, you will give up, and when you shouldn't, you will not give up."

He was going to continue to urge his mother to give Tanchun a life-long decision at an early date, so as not to waste her time being as powerless as he is to his own life-long affairs. Someone asked me to tell the old lady and the wife, presumably Princess Nan'an, Princess Beijing and others have already taken their seats."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked Jia Mu to go first, and ordered Baoyu to go to Ningguo Mansion to greet all the officials and guests, needless to elaborate.

The banquet is here, and the Wei family has already started the banquet.

At that time, Wei Ruolan and Daiyu had already worshiped the world and lifted their hijabs. After Daiyu changed her clothes and makeup, she sat in the new room. Guo came to enjoy it with her, and invited the female relatives of the clan to accompany her to talk. When the people at the banquet saw this, they laughed and said, "Brother Lang really loves his wife."

Wei Ruolan turned around and saw that it was Prince Zhongshun who spoke, and asked, "Shouldn't it be?"

Prince Zhongshun waved his hand and said: "Yes, why not? This is the only thing in the world that should be done. It is said that your daughter-in-law is unique in character and appearance. If you don't pay attention, people will scold you."

Uncle Wei came over and said with a smile: "My lord, please take a seat and ask Lan Geer to give you a few glasses of wine."

Prince Zhongshun was of the highest rank, he sat on the chief seat without hesitation, and smiled at Wei Ruolan: "Should you give me a few more toasts? How is the troupe singing today? How many officials and eunuchs dismissed actors back then, but I didn't have one. After raising them, it is really useful today, and there is no better theater troupe than my family in the whole capital."

Wei Ruolan hurriedly brought up the sea, poured it full, brought it to Prince Zhongshun with both hands, and said with a smile: "The theater troupe in the prince's mansion is naturally excellent, it is unparalleled in the world, no matter how many people ask for it, they can't come. "

Prince Zhongshun smiled triumphantly, took the sea and drank it dry in one go.

Wei Ruolan went to toast other people's wine again, when the banquet was over, relatives and friends from far and near left separately, only relatives of the same family and others attended the table, there were no outsiders, Wei Ruolan entered the new house, and went out with Daiyu to meet relatives in the main hall.

Except Mother Wei and the others, the rest of the people were surprised when they saw Daiyu's flair and beauty.

It was so easy to see them one by one, and everything was in order, and it was almost evening.

At this time, it is still not over, there is still a banquet in the evening, after the banquet, they will go back to the bridal chamber, the husband and wife will drink together wine, eat bedside fruits together, and some relatives from the same family will come to make trouble in the bridal chamber, with endless tricks, making Daiyu blush However, they were not willing to stop, if Miaozhen hadn't personally urged her several times, they would have refused to leave.

At that time, it was already the second watch, and outside the window, the moon was like eyebrows, and the stars were like diamonds.

Seeing Daiyu's exhausted face, Wei Ruolan couldn't help but feel very distressed, she hurriedly supported her to sit on the bed, and thoughtfully said: "Today, I haven't rested from morning to night, and the soup fruit that was brought at noon didn't come back. Seeing how much you eat, I'll ask someone to bring some more food over, eat some at least, I'll starve my intestines, and I won't feel well at night."

Daiyu nodded slightly, and said, "Get something that is easy to restrain and move, but the fleshy fruit is not necessary."

Wei Ruolan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know."

After finishing speaking, he ordered someone to deliver the Ganoderma lucidum soup that had been stewed for a long time, and personally filled a bowl and handed it to Daiyu, saying: "Brother Hua respected my high-quality Ganoderma lucidum during the New Year's Day. It is useless to keep it all the time. Let someone boil it Soup, you can use some."

Daiyu took it with her hand, and said softly, "You should use some too. You drank a lot of wine during the day, so you should have some hangover soup."

Wei Ruolan couldn't help nodding, the husband and wife sat and drank soup, the whole room could only see the flickering shadows of red candles, only heard the sound of candles cracking, and the surrounding Zijuan Zihao and others who served the couple's meal did not dare to breathe out .

After dinner, the maids held tea to wash their mouths with their husband and wife, and prepared hot water for bathing.

Whether it's the dowry maids Zijuan Zihao, etc., or the original maids in Wei Ruolan's room, they are all smart and sensible. After finishing the errands at hand, they quietly wait outside to listen.

Wei Ruolan noticed that Daiyu was a little uncomfortable, her face was flushed like a rosy cloud, and she looked even more charming and charming under the candlelight, she knew the reason as soon as she thought about it, she took her hand and sat beside the bed covered with a red quilt, Said softly: "From now on, this is your home. You can do whatever you want. There are no elders above us, and my mother lives in the Taoist temple all the year round. Thinking of seeing my father-in-law at the beginning of the year, I'm afraid no one would have thought of it. Someday you and I will be married."

When Lin Ruhai was mentioned, Daiyu's eyes turned red, and she said softly: "That year, why did you want to write the manuscript to your father? At that time, the two families had no intersection."

Wei Ruolan smiled and said: "I was only thirteen or fourteen years old at that time, and it was the time when I was young and energetic. I just had an adventure, and I couldn't help but feel uneasy. When I first read the manuscript, I felt that your fate was miserable. You were often confronted by others, but I My own fate may not be smooth, and I feel sorry for each other. Coincidentally, when you visited Yangzhou that year, it was when you went to the temple to pray for blessings. In a moment of anger, you compiled the manuscript into a book and handed it to your father-in-law. At this time, I was very sad Thank you for what you did back then, otherwise how would you be where you are today?"

Hearing his words, Daiyu felt a little sweet in her heart, and said: "It is me who should be thankful. Without you, how could I be where I am today? Although I don't know how the ending of the Dream of the Red Chamber will end, but the eighty episodes that have already The manuscript, as well as the verdict I saw in the Boming Division of the Illusory Realm and the Red Mansion Song I heard, all reveal the fact of my tragic fate."

She sighed softly, full of gratitude and tenderness in her eyes, and asked again: "How do you know that your fate is not good? I saw that in the manuscript, you only appeared once at the funeral of Rong's daughter-in-law, and there was no trace again." .”

Wei Ruolan said: "I wrote about you the original manuscript, only [-] chapters, and some side-by-side criticisms, etc., and I can see some clues from there. In addition, I also know many works related to the original manuscript, perhaps Later generations wrote it and guessed the ending later, and I was mentioned in it, and I will tell you when I am free tomorrow, so that you can know for sure.”

Daiyu sighed, "I can't tell the truth from the illusion."

Wei Ruolan caressed her slender and slender hands as smooth as cream, and said with a smile: "It is true that I am alive, and the rest is illusion, so there is no need to dwell on it, after all, earth-shaking changes have taken place from the very beginning, and everything Can't trust the manuscript."

Daiyu nodded in agreement.

She had changed her makeup a long time ago, but at this time it was not a phoenix crown and a xiapei, she was only wearing her hair in a bun, with a five-tailed red phoenix hairpin hanging on her front, she nodded lightly, and the pearls swayed under the candlelight, as if she was in a painting.

Wei Ruolan's heart throbbed, she said with a smile: "It's getting late, let's rest."

Thinking of what Mother Jia taught her before she went to bed last night, Daiyu blushed so much after hearing what Wei Ruolan said, she had nowhere to put her hands and feet, she didn't know what to do.

Wei Ruolan loudly ordered the outside to deliver water, and helped Daiyu take off her make-up and undress, all the maids were already ready and filed in.

Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief quietly in her heart. After removing her make-up, she took off her big clothes, held Zijuan's hand to take a bath behind the screen, and came out after taking a bath. It's over, there is no crown, only a red jacket, which looks more and more descriptive and indescribable.

Wei Ruolan concealed the excitement in her heart, dismissed her maidservants, took Daiyu by the hand and led her to the big bed, the red curtain fell quietly, only the dragon, phoenix and red candle as thick as an arm was left flickering brightly outside the tent.
